Default Really good deal for 40 bucks

These two cases. The big ass one is an AT-server case, it has wheels and doors and it is pimp as hell I wanna mod it ^_^. Specs: 500 MHz AMD K6-II, 64MB SDRAM, AGP 2X!! w00t AGP 2X on a K6-2 Socket 7 motherboard!! Even has a key lock on teh front so u can't open teh front panel. Gonna make it into a Half-Life server

The other case is a standard ATX case, has some mod potential, got it brand-new for 10 bucks, if u live near Melbourne Florida go to Astro Too that's where I got them, the guy there has 300 of them. And i also got a pair of high-speed 60MM fans for 5 bucks a pop.

Oh, and to show you just exactly how big this thing is, that is a 400 MHz AMD K6-2 sitting on top of the big one.

Last one, rear shot. There is some serious potential to convert it to ATX since the PSU and the expansion slots all are mounted on a bracket and screwed in, I could design an ATX-form factor bracket and throw whatever I wanted to in it.

well I successfully set up Windows ME on it, I know some say it's a crap OS but it's a huge improvement over 98

Teh board has a 112 MHz FSB so back in teh day this was a good overclocker, it goes to 112 X 5.5

windows ME is not an improvent over 98. ME sucks. Dont use it.


But yeah, $15 is a good deal. Too bad its in florida and also AT, Cause its not worth having it shipped for AT.
